A month later...

"I heard that the regional match table is out?"

Huang Se came to the department in a hurry, looked at everyone sitting inside and said excitedly.

He's been looking forward to this day for a long time and wants to play against other schools.

Although he is still a "rookie" who has only just started for less than two months, he has the confidence to win the game.

"Don't be in such a hurry, the schedule won't run out."

Momoi looked at the anxious Huang Se amusementingly.

"However, are there any strong schools in this area?"

Aomine asked boredly as he straddled his chair and looked at the spreadout form on Akaji's desk.

"There are 12 schools in total."

"St. Rudolph... Suzune Mountain... Totachi No. 1... Sunfield Valley Gakuen..."

Seeing that everyone had arrived, Akaji slowly read out all the schools on the battle table.

"If you want to enter the Tokyo Metropolitan Championship, you only have to be in the top two."

"I'll only play three fights, but I'll ask for five fights each time."

"No. 1, No. 6, No. 7 and No. 12 are all seeded teams and will all have byes in the first round."

Slowly moving his fingers to explain, Akaji's gaze finally fell on Temitsu's name.

"Number 11."

"That means we have to defeat the No. 10 Sunfield Valley Gakuen first, and then play against the No. 12 seeded team Honma Gakuen, and then the final game."

"Looks pretty good."

The Vulcan also straddled the chair, and said happily after knowing the next arrangement.

"Bah..."

Ziyuan leaned back in his chair with a dull look, chewing snacks in his mouth, and was not interested in who his next opponent would be.

"It doesn't seem like a big deal."

Bai Jin clasped his hands to his chest, stared at the battle table, and said bluntly.

"There is no one in such eyes, be careful of suffering."

Midorima glanced at Bai Jin for some reason, a little unsure why Bai Jin would say such "arrogant" words.

"Hey, anyway, I'm not looking forward to pulling in the regional competition."

Hearing this, Bai Jin's eyes closed and replied indifferently.

In the current era, there are only a few schools that can really be regarded as strong schools.

These schools in the regional competition are all unknowns.

The only one who has a slight impression is probably St. Rudolph.

If memory serves, Guanyue is now in this school.

However, Saint-Rudolph is also a new school that was established just two years ago, and now the tennis club has not achieved any good results, so it is not known.

Although their Diguang Middle School has only been established for a few years... The tennis club also doesn't have a good reputation...

"Your self-confidence and rhetoric always come from so inexplicable."

Akaji listened to Bai Jin's "arrogant" words, and was also very interested, of course, it was not for the words themselves, but for Bai Jin as a person.

He has always seen people thoroughly, but Bai Jin has a little exception.

Bai Jin's talent and growth will always exceed his expectations.

The situation of Qingfeng and the others, he can grasp it without any surprise, but Bai Jin is different.

Just like the value of irregular growth, the cold will be far beyond your imagination.

Even Chidori, who has long been tired of watching it, before meeting Shiratsu, Akaji didn't expect that a junior high school student would be able to play such a tennis ball.

Not to mention, if he didn't pay attention, he wouldn't be able to fight back steadily.

Now Vulcan and Aomine have to rely on wildness to fight back stably.

Simply by the naked eye, they can only barely see a few balls, instead of maintaining such a high level of attention all the time.

It can be said that if other people are favored by Akaji because of their special talents, then Shiratsu is valued by him because of "technical unknowns".

In terms of speed, it is not as good as Aomine.

In terms of outbreaks, it is not as good as the god of fire.

In terms of endurance, it is not as good as Ziyuan.

Even Kuroko and Kase still have obvious abilities to be valued, and Midorima can also rely on a stable foundation to show off.

In terms of technology, Bai Jin seems to be far superior to them.

At least Akaji can't hit Chidori's speedy and penetrating return shots.

Not to mention the other moves that Bai Jin is still hiding, you think you will win by cracking this move of his, but he still has a move.

Regarding the number of times he was slapped in the face, Akaji has a deep understanding, otherwise he would not have been "sick" when he was a child.

From childhood to adulthood with Shiratsu, even Akaji couldn't see the upper limit of how powerful his strength was.

That's why Akaji was quite interested.

Maybe it's not him, it's another person who wants to control himself.

The other self seems to be trying to control it in order to lay the finishing touch.

That's right...

Now in the team, except for Shiratsu, no one can exceed his control of Seijuro Akaji.

This is not blindness or arrogance, but a sure fact.

And only Bai Jin's unexpected growth is curious, so he can't make up his mind.

This also led to the fact that the other side of Akaji was extremely concerned about this matter, and the things that he couldn't control really disgusted "him".

………………

"It's rare not to train today, how about going to the street tennis court over there to have a fun?"

After school, Huang Se looked at Aomine with great interest and invited.

"Are you talking about the one up in the park?"

When Qingfeng heard this, he instantly spoke energetically.

"Yes, yes, even though the pitch is not very standard and there is only one, there are a lot of people there at night."

"Yes, I can stop by and fight a few games, and I don't know if there are any strong guys."

While the two were talking, they also made an appointment for the next trip.

And the class next door...

"Uh, this is for me and Kuroko?"

Bai Jin looked at the white paper handed by Momoi in a daze, and said helplessly.

"The nutrition table, Akaji-kun said that it was based on a nutritionist, I sorted it out and distributed it to you."

Momoi nodded, glancing at Akaji, who had already left his seat.

"I'll see..."

"This..."

"I'll try to arrange it that way..."

Taking the blank paper, Bai Jin glanced at it and couldn't help smacking his lips.

Akaji's guy is really good at tossing, and the professional nutrition table has been taken out, but if he doesn't follow it, the one inside must be very angry.

Even if he doesn't say it on the surface, I'm afraid he will stare at him with a very terrifying look, and that guy will never allow anyone to disobey "him".

"Seems reasonable, I'll try."

Unlike Bai Jin's unacceptable appearance, Kuroko lay down peacefully.

"Huh? What are Aomine and Kawase going to do? ”

But then, Bai Jin turned his head and saw Aomine and Huang Se who were about to walk out of the school gate through the window, and said strangely.

"Huang Se-kun together?"

Even Kuroko looked at the two people who went out in surprise and wondered.

It stands to reason that Huang Se and Aomine have different routes home, and if they weren't invited to go somewhere, they would definitely not take the same road.

"Ahh I guess I'm going to the new street tennis court in the park..."
